Recording Guidelines

Audio

  • Record in a quiet environment. TV, heating vents, others chatting in the background, traffic, washing machines, etc, as all raise the noise threshold when mixed with the other voices.

  • Too much room tone muddies the mix. A large, echoey room is not the best choice (stairwell or shower) Look for a dry recording space in a room with carpets and drapes.

  • No added effects on the voice (eg, reverb)

  • Once you've recorded a take you are happy with, check for clicks, thumps or other noise that distract from a clean capture. It needs to be clean.

Video

  • Select a background that is clutter free

  • Record head shot at arm’s length - in portrait mode.

  • Choose lighting that compliments your face. Not too orange, not too blue. Not in the shadows. Not with blown out highlights.

  • Don’t add additional colour profiles or special effects to video (black & white, extra saturation) We do that when we edit all the files together.

  • Make sure the footage is not shaky

  • Do not compose your shot with your head touching the edge of the screen or going out of the frame. Put your eyes in the top half of the frame. Portrait is preferred.

  • Check out the pictures below to help!
